    My new project!!!

    I was originally looking for some awd parts so i could do the awd swap on my Galant. Just playing around on Craiglist one day and i found this 15 minutes after the guy posted it. I called him immediately and talked about the car for about 30 minutes! I asked if he would take the post down becuase im a serious buyer he did! So i went and picked it up today.. Im in LOVE!!

    The car has alot of parts that came with it!! Kenwood door speakers,adjustable struts and shocks(kyb agx i believe) eibach suspension,3inch exhuast and 255 pump and the wheels!! I still need a few more small parts to get it running.. Im probaly just going to use a running 2g 4g63 7 bolt block with a 1g head (both in storage)!! The car needs a paint job as u can tell but the interior...Doesnt have a bumper or headlights but thats cool,2gb conversion coming!! I will be putting the fenders back on one day this week!!
    Thanks to the guys at 4GPerformance for letting me use there trailer to get her!!

    Looks like a great project! DSMs are too damn fun. :)

    If you post stupid and incorrect information, you will get red nuggets.

    pfft.
    dismantle it.
    Use it as a donor for your 7g. then scrap the chassis.
    sell all the FWD parts you can no longer use,
    and make a profit whilest swapping your 7g to awd.

    Two project cars? One of them is going to suffer. I'm going to guess its the galant.
    Nice find though.

    i second stunr on the idea of using it to make ur g awd... if it was mint id say leave it alone but its going to take work to get running so why not go with your plan and make the g awd.. all the good parts swap right into the 7g.. im looking for a gsx or talon tsi in that kind of shape for my awd project

    good find

    I third that, an awd 7g galant in the states would be MUCH more badass than another AWD eclipse/talon. Plus the money thing is all the more reason to get what u can off the donor chassis n sell off everything else. Plus your galant already has a complete body n interior

    Its cool u guys my galant aint going no where!! DOHC hell i cant even sell the 7g fwd manual swap that i have in storage or the 6 bolt engine. So i figured i might as well use something instead of paying to store a whole bunch off parts.. My plan is to get the car running and sell it anyways,thats why im putting a 7bolt in it!! You know i would do the 6 bolt if i was going to keep it.. This car is going to make me some money and help move some of this crap i have in storage.. 10x10 nothing but car parts!! Im making some moves so watch out for the 7g!!!

    I agree..... 2gs are cool looking and all but FUCK them. My GF owns one. Its been the BIGGEST piece of SHIT god ever gave man knowledge to fucking create. She has had it almost 2 years and its been down a good portion of its life because its cursed. I say ditch that and make the 7g a BEAST. I thought i was gonna make my 1g my fun "race" car but as john said.. One will suffer. My galant is where my heart is so thats whats getting the 63t swap and all the goooodies.. But good luck man.. Id like to see some good numbers on that shit YO!
